Black Knights In NFL update: Malkelm Morrison, Raiders

Army’s Malkelm Morrison is officially on the Las Vegas Raiders roster.

Morrison is listed as a cornerback with a jersey number of 46. He attended Raiders rookie minicamp over the weekend. Morrison started the last three seasons for Army at the apache position (linebacker/defensive back).

The Raiders announced Morrison’s signing as an undrafted free agent Thursday prior to the minicamp. Morrison is the fifth former Army football player on NFL roster, joining Chargers linebacker Cole Christiansen, Seahawks linebacker Jon Rhattigan, Jets safety Elijah Riley and Eagles offensive lineman Brett Toth.

Former Army nose tackle Nolan Cockrill (Panthers), safety Cedrick Cunningham (Colts) and linebacker Arik Smith (Jaguars) participated in NFL rookie minicamps over the weekend.

Carolina was the second minicamp for Cockrill, who worked with the Baltimore Ravens a week earlier.
